A prominent Canadian-British artist and animator, Richard Edmund Williams (March 19, 1933 - August 16, 2019) got his start training under veterans from UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation such as Creator/DisneysNineOldMen, as well as Warner Bros. animator [[UsefulNotes/NoteworthyLooneyTunesStaff Ken Harris]] and industry drifter Creator/GrimNatwick. [[AuthorAppeal He was totally crazy about silky smooth, seamless animation]].
He has done work on several projects, most famously ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit'' (for which he received both the Visual Effects Oscar ''and'' a Special Achievement Award for the animation direction of the film), ''WesternAnimation/RaggedyAnnAndAndyAMusicalAdventure'' and his historical (and tragically failed) attempt to make "[[WhatCouldHaveBeen the greatest animated film]]" called ''WesternAnimation/TheThiefAndTheCobbler''.
Williams went into semi-retirement, at least from the industry side of animation, after his tragically failed attempt to complete ''Thief'', although he still took up personal animation projects and teached animation via his acclaimed masterclasses.
He has also published an acclaimed book on animation, "Literature/TheAnimatorsSurvivalKit". It also exists as a live class and a 16 DVD set version of it which costs over $1,000; fortunately, an iPad app of it exists that condenses both for the much more affordable $35.
In 2015, he [[https://twitter.com/RWAnimator joined Twitter]] and, later, premiered ''Prologue'', the first part of his top-secret independent project, ''I Hope I Live To Finish This'', at Annecy.
